Acuity Brands, Inc. a market-leading industrial technology company, today announced a new initiative planned to reduce paper use by more than 15 million sheets and save an estimated 1,500 trees per year through its introduction of scannable QR code instructions. The introduction of digital QR code installation instructions is expected to reduce the Company's CO2 emissions by approximately 423,000 pounds per year. Acuity plans to make QR code instructions available for several top-selling products in its portfolio starting in May 2022. Customers will receive a QR code with their product instead of paper instructions. Acuity is committed to lessening its carbon footprint and helping customers do the same.
